Security Operations refers to the processes and activities that organizations implement to protect their information systems and data from cyber threats. This includes monitoring networks for suspicious activity, responding to security incidents, and ensuring compliance with regulations. The goal is to maintain the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of information.
A key component of Security Operations is the use of tools and technologies, such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and security information and event management (SIEM) solutions. These tools help security teams detect, analyze, and respond to potential threats in real-time, thereby minimizing risks and protecting valuable assets.
